The I and the E of names


When is it ok to use the I or the E before a name like..EHarmony or IPoker. I really like this particular name, but the usual version has been long taken and way beyond my grasp. I am thinking about sticking either an E or I in front of it. Which is better the E or I. Thank you

I think they are about the same. Both are used from what I've seen.

which is sounds better? which can be recalled easier if first you would hear it on the radio? which combination with your particular word will sound nicer and easier to remember?
anyway, usually I stands for internet, and E for Electronic. so you chose.

Better buy the i. Apple is using it on their products, who knows Apple might buy that domain in the future.

I think it depends on the word really. Just say the i-word and e-word out loud and try to figure out which one sounds more catchy.
